GamesEyeView: Mass Effect 3 Review

GEV says: Perhaps the hardest part of creating something big is making an ending that suits everything that came before. That’s the challenge that faced the team at Bioware working on Mass Effect 3. Announced as a trilogy, the Mass Effect series has redefined for this console generation what storytelling in games can be. Not content to just let the player come along for the ride, Bioware has allowed the player to help shape the narrative along the way. At many different points in the first two games of the series, players have had to make choices……hard choices…..about a number of events. The challenge for Bioware was to make this all payoff in the end; to create a narrative that accounted for all that came before, no matter what each player’s choices had been. And while not perfect, Mass Effect 3 is an epic game that does most of what it promised.
